I just spent half an hour going through all of the app's settings and I'm in awe from the amount of work that went into it. Some of the things that made me realize the author put their heart and soul into it:

  • Custom filters; pages that show tasks satisfying a certain criteria, e.g. due date is up until tomorrow
  • Notification sound can be played repeatedly 5 times to catch your attention
  • Random reminders in case you're procrastinating
  • Optionally ignore fields you don't use in the task editing screen. I hid reminders (because the defaults are good enough), tags, location, priority. I appreciate it so much.
  • The fucking widget is customizable to death, you can hide the check boxes, hide the dividing lines between tasks, change the font size.

It's perfect, it's obviously on F-Droid, and it obviously syncs with Nextcloud. The widget thing was what made me write this post. They really went out of their way to make the app satisfy everyone.

Thanks for listening

Sadly me and my GF switched away from it, due to the weird handling of subtasks, their order and constant shuffle of them, when expanded and not expanded.

That's right, I found them weird as well. I remember having the hierarchy info lost when viewed in Nextcloud, i.e. all tasks were at the same level with none of the nesting shown in the mobile app. In my case I wasn't using subtasks properly but rather used them as lists, so I just moved them to CalDAV lists ๐Ÿ‘น
